triumphs in "Bitter Sweet."

"Getting
Margaret O'Carroll to take the main
part ensured success...This Tralee soprano
dominated the entire show with her truly
superb singing. Her rendering of 'I'll
See You Again' and 'A Sweet Little
Cafe' was such that it is doubtful if one
could have heard either sung better."
'Bitter Sweet' - Noel Coward
Cork Examiner
"Margaret
O'Carroll, whose fine voice was clear
as a bell and able to attack the high notes clean
in the middle sang the spiky intervals in
declamatory fashion, using at times a quality
of incantation with excellent effect."
'Mo Dhaoine (My People)' - O'Chearbhaill
Irish Times

O'Carroll, soprano, sang very
delightfully all through...This appearance
was a distinct success."

herself by winning the
prestigeous German Government
Cup at the Dublin Feis Ceoil for Bach
singing, and the light opera award at Arklow."

O'Carroll's performance was the
highlight of the night."
